b. No front yard depth shall be required to exceed the average of the depth of the existing front yards on the lots adjacent on each side, if each of such lots are within the same block and within three hundred (300) feet.
c. The minimum side yard on each side of any building shall not be less than ten (10) percent of the lot width; however, the total side yard requirement may not be less than the standard indicated. In a zero lot-line dwelling, one (1) side yard shall not be less than ten (10) percent of the lot width.
d. In any case where the side or rear yard abuts an R-1 District, such side or rear yard will be increased an additional foot for every foot that any building exceeds twenty (20) feet in height.
f. Within all areas zoned P, PC and PI, buffer zones shall be constructed along all side and/or rear lot lines, in accordance with Section 1138.08 (Buffer Strip Requirements for P, PC and PI Districts).
g. Structures may exceed the specified height standard provided that:
(1) All required yards shall be increased by one (1) foot for each one (1) foot of building height more than the specified height standard.
(2) No site plan shall be approved which includes buildings more than fifty (50) feet in height unless approved by the Fire Chief.
(3) In the PC and PI Districts, the site shall have a maximum building floor area/lot area ratio of two to one (2:1) meaning that the total usable floor space within all structures will not exceed twice the total lot area.
h. Percentage of impervious surface shall be calculated by dividing the surface area of existing and proposed impervious surfaces of a lot or parcel by the total surface area of the lot or parcel.
